Setup, connect and control Lasers / Laser show setup - what you should consider

This video explains how to set up lasers at a venue and how the wiring goes for direct laser control via software (ArtNET is quite similar, just different operation mode). It starts with mounting the lasers to the truss, respecting laser safety related aspects, do the LAN wiring with integrated switch and with external switch and also deals with wiring of an E-Stop.

08:18 Set correct operation mode
10:38 Start the Admin Tool, first start procedure
11:28 Start the Admin Tool and make Zone Settings
11:57 Set global projection zone, safety zone, geometric corrections
14:20 Close the Admin Tool before staring the control software
15:04 Start Showcontroller laser software
15:42 Hardware assignment
16:26 How to use an external switch for connecting the control signal
19:39 Showcontroller automatically reconnects to previously connected lasers
20:01 Connect an E-Stop to the Interlock connector
21:06 Daisy chain the E-Stop Interlock signal

Great video

[@JackMouradian]

please do same as this video using DMX and lighting controller

[@LaserworldAG]

We actually did this already: ruclips.net/video/uD-Ezm3sd9A/видео.html
Focus a bit more on the actual control, but it's very very straight forward with DMX ...
We'll consider this putting some more focus on the safety aspect, especially for the devices with ShowNET mainboard. There are already some more videos on this here, this should also give further insight: ruclips.net/video/qyWwTq-KGK8/видео.html

@@LaserworldAG No this isnt what am looking for,, this is standard DMX controller , what am saying an actual lighting controller where its not doing anything when connecting via dmx and not using shownet or any other program

[@LaserworldAG]

OK .... but there is no real difference. But we will make a video on this, starting from scratch and explaining everything.
ShowNET is NOT a software, it is the intelligent mainboard inside the lasers and this is what you need to professionally DMX or ArtNET control lasers. So it's an important part to consider when DMX controlling lasers.
We will make a video explaining this, also based on wiring, addressing and such.
(If you want to understand the difference between ShowNET and laser software control, here is a video: ruclips.net/video/c3eoGQrQXYM/видео.html)
